I'm quite surprised Megane doesn't have the same charging curve of Arya. We can hope Renault will improve it during next OTA as VW and Tesla did before for ID3 and Model 3

@gvaley Жыл бұрын

The question is, do you want it to be improved? Provided the same battery cells in both, the Megane's battery will degrade slower.

Some ninja math, considering arriving with 10% in winter and should charge to get 250km more range at 90km/h. Tesla M3 23 minutes, Megane 28 minutes and Ariya 34 minutes. Forget the ID.3 but enough math for one day !

Considering Wh/km the real winner is Tesla M3 since you get more km to drive faster, maybe a 10% to 250km added to drive would be a more real life test? Or maybe this guy in shorts that looks familiar who have escaped the Norwegian winter is the real winner ?

@o00scorpion00o Жыл бұрын

All depends on battery temps, for this video the batteries will be at 30 odd degrees or more not likely to happen for winter or even here in Ireland in the middle of Summer where night temps can get to 8 deg C in the middle of July/August and day temps struggle to get over 13 deg C on average. Having said that Winter isn't too cold here either but still cold enough to ensure "fast" charging is not fast at all.

Pushing >40Kw with 99% SoC will definitly wear out the battery within a few years. Tesla has years of experience with battery degregation. They obivously have learned their lesson: Above 80%, go very gentle. ;)

I have Megane, i can confirm - the charging is quite slow- I usually charge when it's+20% and I usually get around 50-60kw. The efficiency... Is also bad, I have winter tires and it's around 7°, I am driving 125km/h and the average is 25kWh/100 😮

I hope that Renault went conservative on the charging curve and can roll out a more aggressive curve like the Nissan Ariya... Unless they decided to use worse hardware on the same platform for some reason 🤦

@gabrielecomensoli2787 Жыл бұрын

Well the platform is the same but it is not granted at the battery chemistry is the same. Arya and Megane have different wheel base as well, so the arrangement of the battery pack may differ.

i think this is due to the new slim LG battery uses little cobalt compared to other battery's. this is much more eco friendly and energy dense but i think the battery gets hotter faster during charging so it dials back a little more.

@Infinion Жыл бұрын

The Megane vs Model 3 test doesn't make ANY sense to me. They both have a 400V pack right? So megane hits 400V (4.167 cell voltage) at 80% SoC and the Model 3 is hitting 96% at 369V (3.84V)?? Either something is seriously wrong with these readings or the Megane is overcharging / CV charging to a high cell voltage and is going to have a sheeeeit battery cycle life and the Model 3 is undercharging while indicating 100%. Model 3's 396V is too high for LFP, so it has to be an NCA chemistry or a 116S LFP chemistry.

Is there any advantages from receiving 450 V from the charger, compared to 380 V. Looks like iD.3 get higher voltages than the rest. V x A = kw so ID.3 can have same KW with a lower A

@ReximPL Жыл бұрын

Voltage depends on how your battery is constructed. You can have 100kWh capacity with both 400V and 800V. The difference will be how many Ah (Amp x hours the but in the end you will have the same amount of energy. Bjorn already explained pros and cons of 400V and 800V architecture so you can watch it. In short it doesn't make much difference

@Infinion Жыл бұрын

If the charger cabling is current limited to 125A, a higher pack voltage could get 9kW more energy than 380V. So if your area had a lot of 50kW chargers and you expect to do a lot of charging with them, there could be a time savings. But as this test shows, when the charger isn't the charging bottleneck, 450V is not charging faster than 400V designs. At that point there are other factors at play.

@ndc5544p Жыл бұрын

800V vs 400V is a discussion which doesn't make any sense, only for a select few cars which allow over 200kW charging speed. CCS is limited to 500A, that means on 400V you can get 200kW while on 800V you can get 400kW. The cell voltage is still 3,7V (nominal) so the limiting factor is the cabling. 400V vs 450V would render higher charging speed at the same amps, 12,5% to be exact. But if the manufacturer has adjusted the charging curve down by 12,5% then you won't reap any benefits. You can have all the voltages you want, most of the current batteries and charging curves do not saturate the 500A of a CCS pack. So even if the cars had 300V packs they could still charge at these speeds, with the exception of the Tesla.

@activedriving Жыл бұрын

I both cars have a 400V battery design, one car charge with 400V and the other with 380V, then you need higher A on the car charging with 380V to achieve same KW. Lower A during charging will be beneficial for the in car wiring and electronic, less cooling and Ohm resistance. I assume the car BMS manage the charging by adjusting the A, and there will be a maximum A defined for the in car wiring
